Spinners/CA, USA 1981

The Spinners, a representative Philly soul group, will perform live. Live at Old Waldorf on July 11, 1981. Although they are past their prime, this group had two hit songs in the 80’s. Working My Way Back to You and Cupid – I’ve Loved You For A Long Time. The fact that these two songs are played here is a very valuable and seasonal performance. Other mesmerizing masterpieces such as I’ll Be Around, One of A Kind, and Could It Be I’m Falling In Love are played in quick succession, making you wonder if this was the Spinners’ heyday. We have the original Henry Fambrough on lead vocals, Billy Henderson on tenor, and Bobby Smith, and we also have John Edwards. Come experience the best of Philly Soul!
